After 72 exhilarating days in the Big Brother Naija (BBN) house, Imisi Ayanwale has claimed victory in the Season 10 edition, taking home a cash prize of ₦80 million.
The grand finale, held on Sunday night, marked the culmination of weeks of fierce competition, strategic gameplay, and entertainment that captivated millions of viewers across Africa.
Broadcast live to audiences across the continent, the finale featured high-energy performances from Nigerian music stars Adekunle Gold and Iyanya. Host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu enthralled the crowd with his signature charisma, sparking wild cheers as Imisi’s name was announced as the winner.
Known for her humor and outspokenness, Imisi enjoyed overwhelming support from her fanbase, “Ijoba 606,” and outshone eight strong finalists Dede, Kola, Mensan, Isabella, Jason Jae, Koyin, Kaybobo, and Sultana to secure her place in BBN history.
Her calm, strategic, and emotionally intelligent approach earned her admiration from both fellow housemates and fans who had followed her journey from day one.
The finale closed what many described as one of the most unpredictable and emotionally charged seasons to date, which also saw the surprising disqualification of housemate Faith just days before the finale.
This year’s grand prize, valued at ₦150 million, includes ₦80 million in cash, a brand-new car, a fully furnished apartment, a sponsored international trip, tech gadgets, and multiple endorsement deals from the show’s sponsors.
A visibly moved Imisi thanked her supporters and the Big Brother platform, saying, “I came into this house not knowing what to expect, but I stayed true to myself. Every challenge, every tear, and every laugh brought me here. I’m grateful to everyone who believed in me and voted for me.”
The finale also featured emotional reunions as evicted housemates returned to celebrate the milestone season. Fans packed the venue and flooded social media with congratulatory messages under trending hashtags like #ImisiTheQueen, #BBNaija10Finale, and #10Over10Season.
